C’est avec plaisir que salue chaleureusement tous ceux et celles qui participent au Forum en médecine familiale (FMF) de 2008, organisé par le Collège des médecins de famille du Canada (CMFC), en collaboration avec le Collège des médecins de famille de l’Ontario et les Sections des enseignants et des chercheurs du CMFC. Les médecins de famille font de longues journées de travail pour offrir à leurs patients les meilleurs services médicaux possibles tout en s’efforçant de conjuguer leurs vies professionnelle et familiale. Le Forum annuel en médecine familiale, l’une des plus grandes assemblées scientifiques et professionnelles du Canada, vous offre une occasion précieuse de rencontrer des collègues de partout au pays afin de discuter des dernières recherches et de perfectionner vos compétences.

Cette année encore, le Forum coïncide avec la Semaine du médecin de famille au Canada, qui souligne la contribution des médecins de famille à notre santé et à notre bien-être. La médecine familiale est une spécialisation qui présente son lot d’exigences, mais s’avère être aussi une source d’accomplissement. Il faut posséder un savoir-faire bien particulier pour répondre aux besoins fondamentaux des patients, dans le respect de la relation médecin-patient, qui est fondée sur la confiance et le respect mutuel. Je tiens à féliciter tous les participants pour le dévouement, le professionnalisme et la compassion dont vous faites preuve au quotidien. Je suis convaincu que le Forum de cette année suscitera de nouveaux points de vue intéressants et renouvellera votre enthousiasme pour votre travail.

Au nom du gouvernement du Canada, je vous souhaite une conférence des plus mémorable et productive.

It is with great pleasure that I extend my warmest greetings to everyone taking part in the 2008 Annual Family Medicine Forum (FMF), hosted by the College of Family Physicians of Canada (CFPC), together with the Ontario College of Family Physicians (OCFP) and the CFPC Sections of Teachers and Researchers.

Family medicine practitioners work long hours, while balancing the conflicting demands of work and family life, in order to provide their patients with the best medical care possible. The Annual Family Medicine Forum—one of the largest annual scientific assemblies and business meetings in Canada— provides a much-needed chance to network with your colleagues from across the country; to discuss the latest research; and to benefit from professional development opportunities.

Once again, this year’s meeting coincides with Family Doctor Week in Canada, which allows all Canadians a chance to acknowledge the contributions of family physicians to our health and well-being. Family medicine is a challenging and rewarding specialization. It takes a special skill-set to provide for patients’ primary health care needs, guided by the doctorpatient relationship which is rooted in trust and mutual respect. I would like to commend all the delegates gathered here this week for the dedication, professionalism and compassion for their patients that they show day-in and dayout. I am sure that you will leave this year’s Forum with fresh insights and renewed enthusiasm for the vital work that you do.

On behalf of the Government of Canada, please accept my best wishes for a memorable and productive conference.

The Rt. Hon Stephen Harper, P.C., M.P. Le très honorable Stephen Harper, c.p., député OTTAWA 2008

WELCOME BIENVENUE

welcome • bienvenue

To all FMF registrants, Welcome to Family Medicine Forum (FMF) 2008! We are pleased to be hosting this year’s Forum at the Sheraton Centre, in the great city of Toronto.

FMF 2008 has been planned and is co-hosted by The College of Family Physicians of Canada (CFPC), the Ontario College of Family Physicians (OCFP), and the CFPC’s Sections of Teachers and Researchers.

The Scientific Program offers something for everyone with presentations focused on the clinical, teaching, and research aspects of family medicine as well as health system issues impacting family doctors and their patients today.

To help those with special interests in their careers who may wish to concentrate their learning in defined areas, Family Medicine Forum offers registrants the opportunity to design personal “learning tracks” related to a range of different subjects.

Keynote sessions will be held on Thursday, Friday and Saturday from 8:30 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. Thursday’s keynote and recipient of the CFPC-Scotiabank Family Medicine Lectureship Award is Margaret Trudeau, whose presentation, “Safe Minds – Safe Water – Caring for Canada and the World” will focus on her experiences as a patient with a mental illness and her dedication to the environment. Friday’s keynote, “The Changing Face of Family Physicians’ Practices – in Canada and the World”, moderated by a CFPC Past-President, Dr. Rob Wedel, features a distinguished panel of international leaders in family medicine – Dr. Ruth Wilson (CFPC President), Dr. Ted Epperly (President of The American Academy of Family Physicians) and Dr. Rich Roberts (President-Elect of Wonca – The World Organization of Family Doctors). Saturday’s Keynote features a group of 3 former Family Physicians of the Year, Drs. Mohammed Ravalia, Val Rachlis and Francine Léger, who will discuss the joys and challenges of their respective careers in family medicine in, “What Family Medicine and Being a Family Doctor Mean to Me.” During Saturday morning’s keynote, we will also be acknowledging the young physicians who will define our future when we present the 2008 recipients of the CFPC’s medical student scholarships. Be there to recognize these 17 outstanding family doctors of tomorrow.

The week of November 24th to 29th is “Family Doctor Week in Canada” with Family Medicine Forum as its highlight activity. As part of Family Doctor Week, celebrations and special initiatives are planned to recognize the outstanding care provided by Canada’s family doctors and the special relationship that exists between family physicians and their patients, a bond that defines the essence of the specialty of family medicine.

Special events at FMF 2008 include: the Welcome Reception for all delegates on Thursday evening, the Section of Researchers dinner at Casa Loma (tickets required) also on Thursday evening, and the Section of Teachers annual dinner at Hart House on the U of T Campus (tickets required) on Friday evening. Saturday evening includes our Convocation Ceremonies and the installation of the new CFPC President, Dr. Sarah Kredentser of Winnipeg, Manitoba, immediately followed by the FMF Celebration, featuring Slice of Life, making an encore appearance this year!

Everyone is invited to attend the celebration.

We look forward to greeting old friends and meeting new ones throughout FMF. It’s a great chance to learn and have fun.

Sincerely,

Ruth Wilson, MD, CCFP, FCFP President – CFPC Présidente CMFC

Dominick Shelton, MD, CCFP(EM), FCFP Chair, Family Medicine Forum Advisory Committee Président, Comité consultative du FMF

À tous les participants inscrits au FMF, Bienvenue au Forum en médecine familiale (FMF) 2008! Nous sommes ravis de tenir le Forum de cette année au Sheraton Centre, dans la merveilleuse ville de Toronto.

Le FMF 2008 a été planifié et est co-organisé par le Collège des médecins de famille du Canada (CMFC), le Collège des médecins de famille de l’Ontario (CMFO) et les Sections des enseignants et des chercheurs du CMFC. Le programme scientifique a de quoi satisfaire tous les goûts avec ses présentations axées sur les aspects cliniques de la médecine familiale, sur l’enseignement et la recherche dans le domaine ainsi que sur les questions liées au système de santé qui ont une incidence sur les médecins de famille et leurs patients. Aux médecins qui ont axé leur carrière sur des intérêts spéciaux et qui souhaitent peut-être concentrer leur apprentissage sur des domaines bien précis, le Forum en médecine familiale offre la possibilité de se créer un « cheminement d’apprentissage » personnel à partir des différents sujets abordés.

Les conférences d’ouverture auront lieu les jeudi, vendredi et samedi, de 8 h 30 à 10 h. La récipiendaire 2008 du Prix de la Conférence de médecine familiale CMFC/Banque Scotia et présentatrice de la conférence d’ouverture du FMF 2008 est Margaret Trudeau. Sa présentation intitulée « Esprits en sécurité, eau sécuritaire – Prendre soin du Canada et de la Planète » sera axée sur son expérience en tant que patiente atteinte d’une maladie mentale et sur son engagement envers la protection de l’environnement. Animée par Dr Rob Wedel, un ancien président du CMFC, la conférence d’ouverture du vendredi, qui s’intitule « Le portrait changeant de la pratique des médecins de famille – au Canada et dans le monde », présentera un panel d’éminents leaders internationaux en médecine familiale : Dre Ruth Wilson (présidente du CMFC), Dr Ted Epperly (président, American Academy of Family Physicians) et Dr Rich Roberts (président désigné de WONCA – World Organization of Family Doctors). La conférence d’ouverture du samedi, « Que signifient pour moi la médecine familiale et le fait d’être un médecin de famille », sera présentée par un groupe de trois anciens récipiendaires du prix Médecins de famille de l’année, les Drs Mohammed Ravalia, Val Rachlis et Francine Léger, qui discuteront des satisfactions et des difficultés inhérentes à leur carrière en médecine familiale.

Pendant la conférence d’ouverture du samedi matin, nous rendrons également hommage à de jeunes médecins qui définiront notre avenir lors de la remise des bourses d’études 2008 du CMFC aux étudiants en médecine. Soyez des nôtres pour rendre hommage à ces 17 étudiants exceptionnels qui sont les médecins de famille de demain.

La « Semaine du médecin de famille au Canada » se tiendra du 24 au 29 novembre et le Forum en médecin familiale en sera l’activité phare. Des célébrations et des initiatives spéciales sont prévues pendant cette semaine afin de reconnaître les soins exceptionnels dispensés par les médecins de famille du Canada et le lien spécial qui unit ces médecins et leurs patients, un lien qui constitue l’essence même de la spécialité de la médecine familiale.

Les événements spéciaux du FMF 2008 incluent la réception de bienvenue du jeudi soir pour tous les participants, le dîner de la Section des chercheurs au Casa Loma le jeudi soir (billets requis) et le dîner annuel de la Section des enseignants à la maison Hart sur le campus de l’Université de Toronto le vendredi soir (billets requis). Les cérémonies de collation des grades et l’installation de la nouvelle présidente du CMFC, Dre Sarah Kredentser de Winnipeg, auront lieu le samedi soir. Elles seront immédiatement suivies de la Soirée gala du FMF, mettant en vedette le groupe Slice of Life, de retour cette année à la demande générale! Tout le monde est invité à cette soirée de gala.

Nous sommes impatients de revoir de vieux amis et d’en rencontrer de nouveaux pendant le FMF. Le FMF est une merveilleuse occasion d’apprendre et de s’amuser.

Veuillez recevoir nos plus amicales salutations.

KEYNOTE ADDRESS / CONFÉRENCE D’OUVERTURE – 1000 K/C The CFPC-Scotiabank Family Medicine Lectureship La Conférence de médecine familiale CMFC/Banque Scotia The CFPC-Scotiabank Family Medicine Lectureship is awarded each year to national or international figures who have made significant contributions to medicine, family medicine, and/or the health and well being of the population.

The 2008 recipient of the CFPC-Scotiabank Lectureship award and presenter of the Keynote address to open FMF 2008 is Margaret Trudeau.

Ms Trudeau’s presentation, “Safe Minds, Safe Water – Caring for Canada and the World” will focus on two areas to which she has dedicated her energies – mental illness and the environment. Throughout her adult life, Margaret Trudeau has suffered with bipolar disorder. With the help of medical treatment, she has found balance and happiness in her life. She has become a strong advocate for mental health issues – helping to overcome the stigma of mental illness for thousands of sufferers. Ms Trudeau is also an environmental activist. The Honorary President of Watercan, a Canadian organization, she has dedicated herself to helping the world’s poorest citizens access safe, clean water. In addition to presenting Ms Trudeau with her award, the CFPC and Scotiabank will provide a donation to support the work of Watercan and Margaret Trudeau.

Le Prix de la Conférence de médecine familiale CMFC/Banque Scotia est accordé chaque année à une personnalité nationale ou internationale qui a contribué de façon significative à la médecine, à la médecine familiale et/ou à la santé et au bien-être des populations.

La présentation de Mme Trudeau « Esprits en sécurité, eau sécuritaire – Prendre soin du Canada et de la Planète » sera axée sur deux domaines qui lui tiennent beaucoup à cœur – la santé mentale et l’environnement. Depuis qu’elle est adulte, Margaret Trudeau souffre de trouble bipolaire. Soutenue par des traitements médicaux, elle a trouvé l’équilibre et le bonheur dans sa vie. Elle est devenue porte-parole pour la santé mentale et, par son action, aide des milliers de personnes à surmonter la stigmatisation associée aux maladies mentales. Mme Trudeau est également une activiste écologique. Présidente honoraire de l’organisme canadien EauVive, elle consacre ses efforts à aider les citoyens les plus pauvres du monde à avoir accès à une eau propre et sécuritaire. En plus de lui remettre son prix, le CMFC et la Banque Scotia feront un don à Margaret Trudeau et au groupe EauVive pour appuyer leur travail.

Francine Léger, MD, FCMF Montréal, QC

Val Rachlis, MD, CCFP, FCFP Toronto, ON

Three outstanding family physicians who have previously been recognized as recipients of Reg L. Perkin Awards as Canada’s Family Physicians of the Year (FPOY) reflect upon the doctor-patient relationship and the challenges and rewards of being a family physician. Each brings a unique perspective associated with practices in small rural Canada to mid-sized and larger cities – including experiences as teachers, mentors, leaders in the health care system and, most importantly, as front line physicians caring for their patients in traditional and newer models of practice.

Following their presentations, you will meet Canada’s Family Physicians of the Year for 2008, along with this year’s recipients of the CFPC-Scotiabank Medical Student Scholarships.

Join us to celebrate the past, present and future of Family Medicine in Canada Deux médecins de famille exceptionnels, anciens récipiendaires du prix Reg L. Perkin qui rend hommage aux Médecins de famille canadiens de l’année, réfléchissent à la relation médecin-patient et aux satisfactions et difficultés inhérentes à leur travail de médecin de famille. Chacun abordera la profession d’un point de vue qui lui est propre, façonné par le lieu où il pratique – petite communauté rurale, ville de taille moyenne, grande ville – et ses expériences comme enseignant, mentor, leader dans le système de soins de santé et surtout, médecin de première ligne utilisant divers modèles de pratique – traditionnels et nouveaux – pour soigner ses patients.

Après leurs présentations, vous rencontrerez les Médecins de famille canadiens 2008 ainsi que les récipiendaires des bourses d’études aux étudiants en médecine CMFC-Banque Scotia.

Soyez des nôtres pour célébrer le passé, le présent et l’avenir de la médecine familiale au Canada.

Mainpro-C Credits: Mainpro-C activities remain one of the most progressive and popular learning strategies among family physicians. For CFPC members, earning Mainpro-C credits has the following additional benefits:

Crédits Mainpro-C : Les activités Mainpro-C demeurent l’une des stratégies d’apprentissage les plus populaires et les plus innovatrices pour tous les médecins de famille. Pour les membres du CMFC, l’obtention de crédits Mainpro-C comporte les avantages supplémentaires suivants :

1. For every Mainpro-C credit submitted (with documentation) The College of Family Physicians of Canada will add a bonus Mainpro M1 to your CME record.

2. Members who maintain their Certification (CCFP) (250 credits per 5-year cycle), including 25 Mainpro-C credits in each of two consecutive 5-year Mainpro cycles are eligible to be nominated for Fellowship (FCFP).

3. To maintain their FCFP, those who were awarded Fellowship from 2004 on must maintain CFPC membership and Certification (CCFP) including 25 Mainpro C Credits in each subsequent 5-year Mainpro cycle.

1. Pour chaque crédit Mainpro-C soumis (avec documentation), le Collège des médecins de famille du Canada ajoutera un crédit Mainpro M1 à votre dossier de FMC. 2. Les membres qui maintiennent leur certification (CCMF) (250 crédits par cycle de 5 ans), y compris 25 crédits Mainpro-C dans chacun des deux cycles consécutifs de 5 ans Mainpro, sont admissibles à recevoir le titre de fellow (FCMF).

3. Pour conserver le titre de fellow, ceux qui ont obtenu le titre FCMF depuis 2004 doivent demeurer membres du CMFC et maintenir leur certification (CCMF), y compris 25 crédits Mainpro-C dans chacun des cycles de 5 ans Mainpro ultérieurs.

Would you like to earn extra credits at FMF? Complete a Linking Learning to Practice or Pearls exercise based upon questions relevant to your practice.

1. Linking Learning to Practice activities are self-reflective exercises, which involve answering questions that arise in day-to-day practice or while attending CPD sessions like FMF. These exercises challenge physicians to answer questions which are relevant to and reflect critically on their practices, and implement new learning. If you submit a Linking Learning to Practice exercise, the College will award two Mainpro-C credits.

2. PEARLS exercises also allow family physicians to identify questions important to their practices, while conducting amore detailed literature review and critical appraisal. Three Mainpro-C credits will be awarded to you upon completion of each PEARLS exercise. For more information about Linking Learning to Practice or PEARLS, contact the CPD office, or during FMF, visit the CFPC booth.

Vous aimeriez obtenir des crédits supplémentaires au FMF? Soumettez-vous à un exercice Relier l’apprentissage à la pratique ou à un exercice PERLES basé sur des questions qui se rapportent à votre pratique.

1. Les exercices de réflexion sur la pratique Relier l’apprentissage à la pratique sont une approche qui consiste à répondre à des questions qui se posent dans votre pratique quotidienne ou lorsque vous participez à des sessions de FMC comme le FMF. Ces exercices amènent les médecins à répondre à des questions qui sont pertinentes à leur pratique et à réfléchir à leur pratique de façon critique.

Ils permettent également de mettre en pratique de nouvelles connaissances. Si vous soumettez un exercice Relier l’apprentissage à la pratique, le Collège vous accordera deux crédits Mainpro-C. 2. Les exercices PERLES permettent également aux médecins de famille d’identifier des questions importantes pour leur pratique tout en faisant une recension plus détaillée et une évaluation de la littérature. Chaque exercice PERLES réalisé vous donne droit à trois crédits Mainpro-C. Pour plus d’information sur les exercices Relier l’apprentissage à la pratique et PERLES, communiquez avec le bureau de la FMC ou, durant le FMF, visitez le stand du CMFC.

Learning Tracks • Thèmes des séances d’apprentissage

Each FMF session has also been planned to benefit one or more aspects of a family physician’s work including: clinical care, teaching, research and practice/health system management. The titles and descriptions provided in this program will help guide registrants regarding the focus of each presentation. Registrants are welcome to attend all sessions including those with a teaching and research focus.

Le FMF 2008 a été conçu pour répondre aux besoins d’apprentissage tant des médecins de famille ayant un vaste champ d’activité que de ceux qui ont un domaine d’intérêt plus ciblé. Bien que toutes les séances du FMF soient ouvertes à tous les congressistes (sauf celles qui sont « fermées » ou « sur invitation seulement »), certains voudront peut-être organiser euxmêmes leurs séances d’apprentissage et les regrouper sous des domaines qui les intéressent particulièrement. Les thèmes des séances d’apprentissage du FMF 2008 incluent : Médecine d’urgence • Santé des enfants et des adolescents • Soins de maternité et soins de périnatalité • Soins interprofessionnelle • Santé environnemental Chaque session du FMF a aussi été planifiée pour répondre à au moins un des aspects du travail du médecin de famille, notamment : les soins cliniques, l’enseignement, la recherche et la gestion de la pratique/du système de santé. Les titres et descriptions fournis dans ce programme renseignent les congressistes sur l’objectif de chaque présentation. Les participants peuvent s’inscrire à toutes les séances, compris celles qui sont axées sur la recherche et l’enseignement.

Health and the environment: Children are not little adults

11:00-11:30 Santé et environnement : les enfants ne sont pas de petits adultes Room/salle : West Ballroom – Lower Concourse



Lynn Marshall, MD, FAAEM, FRSM, MCFP Toronto, ON

Until recently, childhood environmental risks were considered as scaled down risks from adult occupational risks. However, children have different and unique exposures, dynamic developmental physiology, and longer life expectancy than adults. This World Health Organization module demonstrates how recognition by healthcare professionals of children’s unique vulnerability to environmental hazards is key, not only to protecting them, but also to determining adult health and the health of future generations.

Jusqu’à tout récemment, les risques environnementaux pour les enfants étaient considérés comme des risques réduits des risques auxquels étaient exposés les adultes. Toutefois, les enfants sont exposés de façon différente et unique, ils ont une physiologie unique de développement et une espérance de vie plus longue que les adultes. Ce module de l’Organisation mondiale de la santé démontre comment l’identification par les professionnels de la santé de la vulnérabilité unique des enfants aux risques environnementaux est la clé qui permet non seulement de les protéger, mais aussi de déterminer la santé des adultes et la santé des générations futures.

When things go wrong: Disclosure of adverse events to patients

13:30-15:00 Room/salle : Conference F – Mezzanine Kathryn Reducka, MD Ottawa, ON

Patients expect to be informed about harm they have experienced, whether from their disease process or from events related to their health care delivery. Health care providers have an ethical, professional and legal obligation to disclose this information to their patients.

While giving news of an unanticipated adverse outcome may be difficult, disclosure of harm related to health care delivery is even more so. This presentation will provide advice on how to plan the disclosure discussion with your patient and offer practical communication strategies to meet your patient’s clinical, information and emotional needs.

The role of chiropractic in an interprofessional practice setting

13:30-15:00 Room/salle : Huron – 2nd floor/2e étage Claude-André Gauthier, DC Gatineau, QC

There is a need for greater familiarization for health care providers about interprofessional collaboration (IP) in a private practice setting. Presently, it is not yet common in Canada.

Our objectives are to enhance the receptivity, knowledge, skills, attitude and open-mindedness on the part of the learner and to improve IP collaboration between family physicians and chiropractors. On an annual basis, there are 4.5 million Canadians who seek the service of a chiropractor. 40% of a medical student educational time is spent in practice setting. It is important that they get exposed to the relevance of the IP model in a practice setting. Within the medical field there are slightly different views, expectation and understanding about the way which health care should be provided to their patients.

Office management of sports head injuries / concussions

13:30-15:00 Room/salle : Conference B – Mezzanine Jim Carson, MD, CCFP, Dip Sport Med Unionville, ON

Learning objectives: 1. Family physicians will learn how to safely guide patients back to full participation in sports after a concussion, 2. The decision whether to refer the athlete will be clarified, and 3. Educational resources for use in the office will be demonstrated to achieve a comfort level with management of these injuries.

Family physicians are often put in a difficult position by a patient requesting written permission to return to their sport after a concussion. The CMPA has recommended that you do not comply unless you are certain that this is a safe course of action.

Historically, concussions have been classified with various grading systems. Over the past decade, grading has been abandoned and a new paradigm of concussion management has emerged. The cornerstone of treating this injury is ‘rest until all symptoms resolve’, then a graded program of exertion before returning to sport.

Anaphylaxis: To BEE or NUT to BEE - What is the question?

10:30-11:00 Room/salle : Dominion Ballroom South – 2nd floor / 2e étage Indy Ghosh, MD, CCFP(EM) Hamilton, ON

The incidence of anaphylactic reactions is now recognized to be much greater than previously thought. Research in Emergency Medicine has shown that diagnoses is difficult and therefore patients are often undertreated. Understanding the systemic process of the reaction and the varied clinical courses will help to recognize this potentially fatal diagnosis quicker. Initiating life saving treatment quicker and in the appropriate dosing will save lives. Come learn the evidence behind what you thought was the correct treatment for anaphylactic reactions.

Achieving glycemic control without therapeutic compromise

10:30-12:00 Room/salle : East Ballroom – Lower Concourse Lawrence Leiter, MD, FRCP(C) Toronto, ON

Stewart Harris, MD, CCFP, FCFP London, ON

According to the 2003 ‘CDA Clinical Practice Guidelines’, primary care providers will have to care for increasing numbers of patients with diabetes who are living longer and who will have more advanced stages of the disease which makes the care and management even more complex. These guidelines have now been updated and will most probably depict an even more complex and critical picture of diabetes in Canada as the epidemic of the disorder as well as its underlying science continue to evolve.

This clinical plenary session will focus on the integration of new clinical science as well as the expected to be recently published 2008 CDA Clinical Practice Guidelines.

10:30-12:00 Room/salle : Huron – 2nd floor/2e étage Ken Buchholz, MD, CCFP, FCFP Annapolis Royal, NS

In today’s world of increasing patient care demands and shrinking health care resources, the need to do more with less is challenging the health care system as never before. New models of care are evolving to meet these demands. This session will explore the role of collaborative practice teams and provide an overview of various types based on community needs and resources. Suggestions and pitfalls for developing a collaborative practice will be explored. The roles of the “Family Practice Nurse” and “Nurse Practitioner” will be described. Opportunities to develop relationships with other physician extenders will be reviewed.

Clinical uncertainty in practice and teaching

10:30-12:00 Room/salle : Ice Palace – 4th floor/4e étage Nancy Fowler, MD, CCFP, FCFP Hamilton, ON

Dale Guenter, MD, CCFP, FCFP Hamilton, ON

What do we know and how do we know it? When we don’t know, what do we do? Participants will explore the role of science in certainty; alternative models of “expertise”; the role of uncertainty in healing; the pedagogical value of uncertainty in teaching; and, approaches for teaching comfort with uncertainty.

This session is relevant to community and university-based family physicians/ teachers. We will review principles from philosophy of science, epistemology and evidence based medicine that help us to understand the familiar analytical processes we are using every day. We will highlight, from the literature, how uncertainty is handled by physicians; how clinical outcomes are affected by different approaches to ambiguity; and, the prominent models describing and challenging our notion of “expertise”. Participants will discuss their own experiences and approaches with a view to developing some new ideas for dealing with uncertainty in our work as clinicians and as teachers.

Room/salle : Norfolk – Mezzanine Alison Eyre, MDCM, CCFP Ottawa, ON

At Centretown Community Health Centre in Ottawa, we found that we were unable to fit the New Canadian population to our normal schedule both from the perspective of a new referral and for follow up. Using the notion of a primary care speciality clinic, we have been able to more efficiently use our clinical resources and to pool community resources to meet the special needs of these populations. Dr. Carol Geller, Dr. Alison Eyre and the clinic nurse, Lisa Mitchell, will share the tools and ideas we have used and explore with the group innovative clinical approaches being used currently.

Excellent session – will help me in my everyday practice. My only suggestion would be to increase the amount of time allotted for small group discussion… we didn’t have time for all members of our group to present their ideas.

Ingrown toenails: A case of paradigm paralysis Room/salle : Civic Ballroom – 2nd floor/2e étage

Henry Chapeskie, BSc, MD, CCFP, FCFP Thorndale, ON

This is an innovative approach to an old problem. The term “ingrown toenail” incriminates the nail as the causative factor, however there is excellent evidence-based research demonstrating that there is no nail abnormality and that the problem is due to an excessive amount of soft tissue. Removal of this tissue results in less bulging over the nail with weight bearing and eliminates the problem. The nail is not touched! This technique challenges the traditional procedures directed at the nail and suggests that they are not physiologically rational. the result is cosmetically excellent and the problem will never recur!

Vitamin D / Vitamine D

11:30-12:00 Room/salle : West Ballroom – Lower Concourse



David Jenkins, MD, DM, BCh, DSC, FRCPC, FRCS Toronto, ON

The suggested reasons for taking Vitamin D are many, based on evolutionary and observed data and will be discussed. At present, the message as always appears to remain moderation and watch for the next series of studies. Vitamin D continues to be good for the bones and may benefit colon cancer, as may increase calcium intake. We must watch to see if a consensus develops for cancer prevention especially for the breast and prostrate. However at present the hoped for overall benefit for vitamin D and all cancers is lacking.

2. Learn the most “feared” presenting complaints, and how they could represent rare but significant medical diagnoses 3. Learn the most commonly omitted items from office based practice that affect children presenting to an emergency department

Scientific Program – saturday • SAMEDI – Programme scientifique Nous discuterons des nombreuses raisons suggérées pour la prise de vitamine D, à partir de données évolutives et observées.

Présentement, le message demeure le même, c’est-à-dire la modération et la surveillance des nouvelles séries d’études. La vitamine D continue d’être bonne pour les os et pourrait avoir un effet bénéfique dans la prévention du cancer du côlon, à l’instar de l’augmentation de l’apport calcique. Nous devons surveiller un consensus éventuel sur la prévention du cancer, particulièrement le cancer du sein et de la prostate. Toutefois, nous ne disposons toujours pas de preuves sur les bienfaits de la vitamine D pour tous les types de cancer.

PHN is the most common and feared complication of HZ however, other complications includes ocular complications, secondary bacterial infection, encephalitis, and facial palsies to name a few. PHN occurs in over 60% of patient over the age of 60 and can persist for months or even years.

Current treatments for the management of HZ and its related complications do not adequately manage all people.
